hi,
i just compiled the latest cvs (atleast the one with - 04-08-2004 fixed: new textures.xpr as the last added feature) and have noticed some various changes.
since the start button no longer does it's normal/stretch/zoom thing, would it be possible to incorporate some other stretch settings into the osd? (it's cumbersome changing the pixel ratio in the osd to stretch to fullscreen, atleast, it's not as easy as it could be).
what i have in mind is a scroll box like seen in the settings menus to stretch to a certain aspect ratio. the extent of my coding ability is if statements in pascal so i'm not much help, however the theory behind it is as follows: (note: zoom player on pc does it like this i think) (note2: ph = pixel height pw = pixel width, as configured in the settings)
in the case of the tv being set as 4:3...
stretch to 4:3 - (100% * ph) + (100% * pw) (video is stretched to completley fill up the screen)
stretch to 16:9 - (75% * ph) + (100% * pw) (video is stretched to be 16:9)
stretch to 2.35:1 - (57% * ph) + (100% * pw) (video is stretch to be 2.35:1 (movies like star wars))
good idea?
thanks
